Overall, we find that mean expression levels are weakly preserved between three brain regions and blood (r range [0.24,0.32]).
A functional enrichment analysis of brain module preservation reveals basic functional pathways preserved between the two tissues.
In these three syntenic regions, relative order and orientation of the genes are preserved between the two species (for review [13]).
A third disadvantage is that cross-tabulating module membership between two networks may miss that the fact that the patterns of connectivity between module nodes are highly preserved between the two networks.
Critically, the residues involved with zinc binding are preserved between the two molecules in this alignment.
However, out of the 4 O-glycosylation and 5 N-glycosylation sites found to be preserved between the two Penaeid shrimp and crayfish βGBP-HDL proteins, only 2 and 1 respectively were present in the krill sequence, indicating potential differences in post translational modification [39].
These genes may be part of sets of genes (co-expression modules) that are preserved between the two tissues.
Essentially all of the structural features observed for PRCP and described above are preserved between the two enzymes.
Regarding matching strategies, it may prove difficult for a similar proportion of matching to be preserved between the two models.
The difference in the GC3 content was preserved between the two species, although this difference was clearly weaker in the T nigroviridis genome than in the Human genome.
While the definition of consensus modules trivially implies that they are preserved between the two data sets, it is a non-trivial result that in this application the meta-modules are preserved as well.
